Dominatron2212 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I am about a month in to ownership of my Edge... and LOVE it so far. I do have to take it back to the dealership because the door panels rattle.. even with NPR on 1/5 volume. Otherwise it's been a dream. Black on black with a panoramic moonroof. Cloth seats (couldn't afford leather and a moonroof), and led interior light replacement and all emblems removed. I have used 303 Aerospace Protectant on all exterior and interior vinyl and its looking great, and have treated the seats and floormats with 303 Cloth Protectant for a highly water repellant action with no affect on the feeling of the seats. I even polished those massive tailpipes to a chrome shine Look forward to sharing future plans and reading about all you guys have done here!

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Welcome to the forum, and congrats on the '11 SEL. Pix, else you got a Yugo Doors rattle already? How many miles on the Edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominatron2212 Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Welcome to the forum, and congrats on the '11 SEL. Pix, else you got a Yugo Doors rattle already? How many miles on the Edge? I'll get them up soon! 36k.. I can tell others doors have been repainted.. I'm hoping they just need to realign the door panels.. otherwise the dealer and I will have some issues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Did you get an Autocheck/Carfax history? To see if there have been any collisions? How much repainting? Have them check struts & motor mounts while they have it. Edited November 4, 2014 by WWWPerfA_ZN0W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominatron2212 Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 I did get a carfax... but those are worthless. It came back clean... but so did the one they ran on my mustang that had >5K in damage 3 times... so yeah. I did have my family friend's body shop look it over and they are confident there was no frame damage "without lifting it". The paint isn't in the best condition, a bit of orange peeling... but I am saving to a full machine polish from a detail shop to fix it all.

good2Bking Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Welcome and good luck with the "new-to-you" ride. I have a '13 SEL, also black. Just picked it up as an early lease turn in. Can't beat the look of that black metallic exterior against the chrome wheels & grille. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
